Get a basic idea of how sentences are constructed. This will not be too difficult, as German is very similar to English in this way. There are slight variances but you can learn some now and will learn the more complex ones with time.t is also important to learn some basic words before traveling to Germany or trying to talk to any Germans. 1  Start with important singular words, like âyesâ, ânoâ, âpleaseâ, âthank youâ, and the numbers 1-30. 2  Move on to basics like âI amâ (Ich bin), âYou areâ (Du bist), âHe/She isâ (Er/Sie ist), etc.

Greatest Common Factor. The highest number that divides exactly into two or more numbers. It is the greatest thing for simplifying fractions! Let's start with an Example ... Greatest Common Factor of 12 and 16. Find all the Factors of each number, Circle the Common factors, Choose the Greatest of those.
